Flying at high speeds and witnessing faster missiles in the air is not often seen by pilots, and generally speaking, no one is in the mood to observe the missiles when they are coming.

However, for Long Yun, whose eyesight is far beyond ordinary people, this scene is quite commonplace, and he quickly judged that the angle between the missile's track and the path of the landline plane was about 60 degrees, and combined with the fact that he could not see a single enemy plane now, he guessed that it should be several over-the-horizon missiles, perhaps infrared, or active radar-guided "Mika".

Since the bait is arranged, but it is just a cold gun from afar, what kind of fish is this fishing?

Since the traces of enemy aircraft were discovered, the RWR alarm also began to sound at this time, and Long Yun, who witnessed the missiles flying wildly, sneered behind the breathing apparatus, and he immediately reversed the sidestick and kicked the rudder to let the landline roll, and entered the acceleration side rotation with afterburner turned on, and turned on the pre-power of the two PL-10s, and at the same time turned on the helmet aiming indication function of the fire control system.

Hurriedly set up a bureau, but used a round of dense over-the-horizon missile firing to expose their whereabouts, and now Da Lara turned on the radar to capture their tracks, these liberals, fighting is like a joke!

Contempt for the enemy, but not a light enemy, Long Yun is actually figuring out the opponent's strengths, while deciding the next battle strategy.

Since coming to the Middle East battlefield, except for the first time when he went south to deal with the FIAF, Long Yun has basically fought against the Syrian rebels in the west, and his impression of the air force of the Baghdad regime is limited to one or two previous air encounters; Now it seems that the impression left at that time was indeed correct, and the tactical thinking of these FIAF pilots was really a bit unbelievable. Just look at the number of missiles that just burst through the air. So many fighters came. Why can't you even do a single fishing?

This question may have some significance in the tactical discussion meeting, but Long Yun didn't think about it at all now, seeing the superimposed display of the radar warning and the trail of enemy planes looming in the sky, the young man entered a complete combat state, except for how to kill the enemy, all other distractions were discarded.

While piloting the plane to meet the enemy, I was nervous and thinking. Long Yun's judgment is completely reliable, and the few FIAF fighters he encounters now are indeed a "Mirage" 2000-5 fighter formation that wants to sneak attack with the help of decoys.

Since the outbreak of the civil war, unlike the Syrian Liberal Party, which borders Turkey and has convenient arms imports, the Baghdad regime has relatively few ways to smuggle weapons, let alone mysterious "ghost" fighters to replenish consumption, and the FIAF lineup is much inferior to that of the FSA.

However, even so, today, with the tremendous development of aviation competition and the massive proliferation of third-generation fighters among the people, there is no difficulty in procuring some serviceable fighters from the Tongguò arms brokers, and the Liberal Party soon gathered a large number of accustomed "Mirage" 2000, MiG-25PD, MiG-29 and other fighters. The quality may not be good, but the quantity has always maintained a great advantage over NATA.

It's today. Flying to the northern front in droves, several tawny camouflage "Mirage" 2000-5 fighters were quite extravagant to carry six "Mika" missiles, which were obtained from the international black market with the help of the truce.

Although the "Mika" with advanced performance is a bit overkill when mounted on the "Mirage" aircraft, the current war situation is critical, and it can only be improvised.

In the clear sky, they flew forward in formation according to the predetermined plan, and learned in radio communications that there was a suspected NATA fighter in the airspace ahead, and the officer leading the team directed these "Mirage" 2000-5 to turn to the direction of one o'clock, and according to the rough estimate of the airborne system, they launched eight "Mika" in one breath, hoping to directly kill the NATA fighters that entered the sideways rotation and dived to chase the decoy.

Wishful thinking was underway, but a "Mirage" fighter in the formation, which had not kept its radar silent as required, reported that it had spotted an enemy plane at a distance of 30 kilometers at 10 o'clock!

After receiving the report of his subordinates and realizing that the wave of missiles in front of him was about to fail, the major of the Liberal Air Force who led the team couldn't help but be a little irritable, but with the scale of his four fighters, even if he encountered the pilots hired by the New Party, he could fight a battle, and the commander immediately gave an order in the channel, and all the staff turned to the direction of ten o'clock, turned on the radar and prepared to meet the enemy.

One side calmly headed south, the other side went north, and after another wave of bluffing over-the-horizon missiles swept by, a visual contest in the sky suddenly broke out.

From the beginning of the far sky, to the dangerous visual distance, Long Yun quickly found the target in the clear sky, and the afterimage of the missile rushing in, he decisively entered the side turn, and at the same time closed the small throttle valve, with a variety of hot flares and jamming chaff to shake off an incoming missile.

According to the enemy intelligence obtained by NATA, Long Yun, who was piloting the aircraft to meet the enemy, was well aware of the possibility of FIAF using the "Mika" missile, and at the same time was highly vigilant; In the fierce battle, he didn't have time to see the shape of the missiles that were passing by, but after a rough estimate of the distance between the enemy and the enemy, he knew that eighty percent of these oncoming Liberal fighters were carrying "Mika" with a longer range, so they would fire first at such a distance.

After the truce, the fighters on both sides were the same as before, but the missile weapons had been upgraded, but Long Yun, who found this, was still confident.

Conscious snooping quickly told him that there were four enemy planes, and he lightning-fast manipulated the "villain" to change out of the side turn, and while adjusting the flight attitude, he used the helmet sight to lock on to the yellow-brown "phantom" in the field of vision, and after the fire control system set the parameters for the PL-10 missile to ensure that it could capture the target after the ejection and enter the homing direction, he immediately pressed the launch button.

The command was issued, the pylon unlocker immediately moved, and the belly of the "villain" who was still spinning on the side immediately threw two slender swords one after the other, and the PL-10A, which delayed ignition, flew away and stabbed away with a thin and bright tail flame!

The head-on distance is nearly 10 kilometers, the launch off-axis angle is almost 60 degrees, and the ejected combat missile must intercept the target in the initial state of swinging and bumpy launch, which is very difficult for the infrared missiles scanned by PL-9C and AIM-9M and other markers, even if the target is finally locked after a spiral scan, the fighter is often missed; However, now, the PL-10A missile with focal plane imaging has no pressure, can scan the seeker with a full field of view at one time, quickly identify four long-wave infrared radiation sources, and immediately enter the homing after judging according to the pre-set parameters.

Head-on interception, large off-axis angle launch, automatic locking immediately after ejection, the "villain" who relaxes the invitation to death fires while entering the reverse large overload side-turn; Sharp arrows flew back and forth, cutting through the vast sky in an instant, using advanced infrared missiles with head-on interception capabilities to fly at each other, a contest with a huge disparity in numbers, and soon the first victim who was unfortunately shot appeared.

In the face of the oncoming PL-10A, the four "Mirage" 2000s, which were superior in numbers, naturally evaded quickly, but the FIAF fighters, which had been maintaining a rigid oblique formation when engaging the enemy, made a low-level mistake.

Without distancing themselves from each other or adopting some more complex tactical arrangements before entering the fight, the four Iraqi fighters lined up in a row closed the throttle and entered the sideways with a tacit understanding, among which the two "Phantoms" that turned to the left were quite coordinated, and the FIAF pilots, who did not notice the radar warning, realized that the opponent was likely to launch infrared bombs, and the two "Phantoms" dragging white smoke scattered the flare bombs everywhere, and avoided a PL-10 interception with the help of a high-yoyo maneuver that did their best.

Flying in the clear sky, the PL-10A with the seeker imaging has actually been staring at the target, but limited by the excessively large launch off-axis angle, in the face of the desperately climbing "Mirage" 2000-5, the sudden change in the angle of the projectile line makes the need for overload exceed the limit, and the PL-10A with sufficient storage speed is still unable to keep up with the target's movements, and can pass under the fighter plane that escaped death.

However, compared with the two FIAF fighters that dealt with it properly, the two "Phantoms" on the right side of the formation were not so lucky, and the two pilots subconsciously unanimously adopted a right-turn strategy, but in fact put the incoming missiles into their own "cold side" -- for air-to-air missiles, the difficulty of chasing and killing targets along the "cold side" is of course much less than that of the "hot side"; as a result, one of the "Phantoms" that desperately maneuvered and looked like a broken kite escaped alive, and the other FIAF fighter plane that was closely watched by the missiles was doomed. Seeing that the general trend was gone, the pilot directly chose to parachute, and the fighter plane that lost control was directly hit by a white arrow in the next moment, and then dragged the black smoke down.

In the first round of the head-on collision, the Iraqis lost a fighter plane, but Long Yun, who attacked the "Mika", was able to cope with it, and after he threw off the missile in a sharp turn, he immediately changed course with the TVC control of the "villain".

Skillful control all the way, giving full play to the excellent low-speed handling characteristics of the J-10E compared to the "Mirage" 2000, a tailless layout fighter, coupled with a high thrust-to-weight ratio that far exceeds the opponent's, the "villain" who rolled and changed its trajectory suddenly went around to the side of another Iraqi fighter, and after a few seconds, it turned to the rear hemisphere of the enemy plane.

In a contest that broke out at an altitude of several thousand meters, the fighters of both sides were speeding at more than 800 kilometers, but the thin atmosphere at high altitude could hardly give the "Phantom" fighters ample usable lift, and the so-called advantage in acceleration was even more dwarfed in front of the "villains" of the high SEP.
